Chapter 99: Strange Things in the Gray Field

I didn't dare to rush into the midst of them all at once, so I stopped, stood behind the straw stack closest to the ash field, and looked carefully at the ash field.

The ash field was very clean, there was no straw or dust left over from the wheat, and there were seven or eight children who were a little older than me, all wearing shorts and sweatshirts, standing or squatting, running or jumping, playing happily in this ash field.

This ash field, more than a mile west of our Zhuangzi, is in the middle of these crops. To the south is another small village. I rarely run to the west of Zhuangzi to play, so I don't know those children very well.

I originally thought that they were from our village, but when I looked at their faces, I felt very eye-catching, and one of them, I recognize, that guy was three or four years older than me, and we usually called him a big-bellied baby, because I didn't know what disease he had, and his belly had been bulging for years.

And this guy's face is extremely white, not yellow and white, but pure white and white, and when this guy speaks, not only his tone is stubborn, but the corners of his mouth will keep foaming, so I recognized him at a glance.

It's just that I don't understand why on such a hot day now, the other children are all dressed in shorts and short sleeves, but he is still long pants and long sleeves, and even more, he also wears a green military cap, and in front of the hat, there is a very red five-pointed star badge, which is very eye-catching.

Among the seven or eight people, there were three, who were squatting on the ground, pouting their buttocks, and slamming hard; Two of them surrounded them, tirelessly pushing the very large and high iron hoop round and round, and the iron hoop made a rattling sound as it ran quickly; The other two are sitting in the middle of the ash field, both of them with their feet crossed, grabbing their children in one game at a time.

And the big-bellied baby, standing next to the children, looked at this and that, and seemed to be muttering to himself all the time, because I saw that the white foam had come out of his mouth.

And these children laughed happily while playing, and the laughter came and went, far and near. If you look at it like that, you must think that these children are normal anymore, but I stood behind the straw stack and looked at it for a while, and I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't tell what the problem was.

It had rained heavily the other day, and the ash field was very clean, and the children were running barefoot and running around without any scruples. But now the sun is shining, and I am standing on the edge of the wheat straw stack without moving, and I have begun to sweat slightly, and several of them have been playing very devotedly, but none of them feel very hot and want to sweat.

I didn't think much of it, but I saw the pot-bellied baby walk up to the two grasping children, and as he stretched out his hand, and pointed to the side, I flashed out from behind the straw stack, and walked slowly and step by step towards the ash field.

I thought I'd go over and pat the big belly baby on the shoulder, meaning I wanted to play with them too. However, when I approached them, I was about to reach out to pat him, but unexpectedly, he slowly turned his head and looked straight at me.

I couldn't help but stop and stand on the edge of the ash field and look at him too. I could clearly feel that the other children had stopped and turned their heads to look at me.

It doesn't matter if it's a hot day, it scares me out of a cold sweat on such a hot day. Because, because I saw at this time, except for this big-bellied baby, those children, whether they were squatting or sitting, or standing and pushing the hoop, there was no shadow!

In other words, these children should not be normal people. But how could they have such fun with this big-bellied baby in this ash field?

At this time, the lips of the big-bellied baby moved, and I saw that the white foam at the corner of his mouth was still bubbling out, and he opened his mouth, except for spitting out white foam, he didn't even speak, but squeezed his eyebrows at me, as if a small flying insect suddenly got into his eyes.

I didn't know what he wanted to do, but when I was wondering, I saw this big-bellied baby, suddenly take off the green military hat with a red five-pointed star on his head, and slammed it at me.

When I looked at it, I was confused, why is this person like this, when he sees me, he will hit me in vain! As soon as I saw that the hat was like a half-cut brick, it was thrown at me quickly, and when I saw that there was something wrong with the hat, I quickly dodged and hid to the side, and watched the hat fly softly and smash to the ground.

Obediently, what kind of hat is this, why is it such a heavy sound, I looked down, I didn't expect it, the hat was wet, and I touched it with my toes, the hat was not deformed, and I slammed my shoes!

Something is wrong with this hat, there seems to be something in it, I kicked the hat with my toes again, I didn't expect that a piece of something fell out of the hat, this is something I couldn't have imagined, that piece of thing, it was actually a slap of ice stubble!

I was shocked all of a sudden, and quickly gathered my feet and looked at this big-bellied baby. Unexpectedly, this guy originally had yellow and soft yellow hair, and I don't know what's going on, but now he doesn't have a hair on his head, and his head is shiny, and it seems to be shining.

I looked at his face again, and at this time, I felt that his face was so straightforward, so white that it was about to turn blue. And the corners of his mouth kept foaming at the mouth, just like my old scalper.

The other children were still looking at me so steadily, not moving, not saying a word. Could it be that my presence broke the situation that they were having a good time, or was it that I shouldn't have been here at all?

The big-bellied baby, seeing that his hat didn't hit me, seemed a little angry, but except for the white foam on the corner of his mouth that fell down with the shaking of the corner of his mouth a few times, I didn't see any movement in him.

I just wanted to ask him what was wrong with him, why did he look like this, and there were ice cubes frozen out of his head. As soon as I opened my mouth, I saw the two children who were standing pushing the hoop, and suddenly they moved, and together, they took the long putter in one hand and the tall iron hoop in the other, and rushed towards me.

I was already frightened by the way they looked, and now two more guys rushed towards me with unkind faces, and if these two iron guys in their hands were to greet me, then I would not be smashed all over my body.

So, I wanted to turn and run, but I don't know why, something under my feet was holding my foot so firmly that I couldn't move.
